Most-quoted passages
The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 11 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“That the plaintiff was in default in making the payments as provided in the contract appears affirmatively from the allegations of the complaint. The total amount of payments made before the re-entry by defendants was equal to or greater than the sum of $30 per month, the minimum provided by the contract. The contract, however, was that the plaintiff should pay $30 or more per month. The payment of $675 in August 1920, did not relieve the plaintiff of the duty, under her contract, to pay $30 each and every month thereafter.”
